Forgive me for my late response, matters in Jelbania kept me from being able to join this conversation earlier.

Vanuku concurs with Istalian delegate Marini and Solentian delegate White on a number of issues:

Firstly, the planed phase out of troops in Jelbania replaced at first by Istalian forces seems satisfactory on face value and we would like to look at the detail of a proposal;

Secondly, Vanuku remains Istalia's staunchest ally in the fight for a prosperous and stable Majatra, free of totalitarianism and open for trade;

Thirdly, Vanuku will be a prime mover in getting the Trans-Majatran Railway up and running. We have already carried out extensive rail infrastructure work in our own country ahead of this, and would be pleased to hold contracts to construct the railway through Jelbania;

Fourthly, we agree that the issue of smuggling and human trafficking must be deal with and we would be ready to invest in and help co-ordinate a body to deal with these crimes...

I must say, though, it is very distracting to deal with these issues when faced with Deltaria increasing the number of its troops in the Katonid Khanate to 40,000 - once again forcing our hand to carry out further defensive actions. As for the atrocities against Deltarians in the Jelbanian Free Republic, whilst we condone the acts of violence it is a direct result of the assassination of the Premier - the perpetrators of which also need to be found and punished.

Istalia is glad to see Vanuku agrees on so many points. However, President Calenda asked me to demand now an immediate cessation of any activity and further sending of troops in Jelbania, by part of both Deltaria and Vanuku.

President Calenda wants express his disappointment. This summit was not organized to give time to you to conduct further operations. We tried to go towards the positions of the parties and to find a compromise, now it's time of a concrete sign by your part.

Istalia will not simply replace Deltaria and Vanuku, Istalia will operate since the first minute within a multinational WC force, alongside other foreign forces, just in a first moment with a preminent role and with more troops, but always under the authority of the WC Security Council.

If Vanuku and Deltaria will not stop immediatly their operations, well... this summit will be considered closed due to a failure. There will be no further common development or continental common project if we are not able to put behind our contrasts and to solve peacefully our problems.

President Calenda asked: "why talk about Trans-Majatran railways to further connect the people of this continent if we are ready to start such a conflict?"

Finally, President Calenda declares the Free Republic of Jelbania under protection of Istalia: we are not sending forces nor financial or logistic aid, it is a form of insurance: any attack against the FRJ will unleash our condamnation, will unleash our demand before the Alliance to suspend the attacking nation, will unleash our demand of condemnation and suspension before the World Congress and will unleash the end of any relations with Istalia.

President Calenda was very clear: now to you to decide if put an end to this summit or continue the talks.

Vanuku reiterates that it wishes above all peace and prosperity for Majatra. Therefore, please convey to Istalian President Calenda that we understand her concerns and that Vanuku pledges not to carry out any further military operations into Katonid Khanate territory unless provoked to do so.

We also welcome Istalia's move to protect the Free Republic of Jelbania (FRJ) against aggressive and radical attacks from the Katonid Khanate. Perhaps with our joint influence the Northern Khaganate and the FRJ can move closer towards union and becoming the legitimate successor state to Jelbania.

Finally, we ask delegates to condemn the invasion of the tribal areas of Jelbania (Yamt​ékstan) by the Zardic military and the fact they are arresting anyone who they deem to be a terrorist i.e. any person holding anti-Augustan, anti-Deltarian or anti-Katonid ideology. So much for the Deltarian peace talks with Zardugal! It seems we now face the carving up of southern Jelbania and the creation of a pro-Katonid, anti-Jelbek alliance to occupy the whole of southern and western Jelbania.

We thank Vanuku for its willigness in supporting our proposals but now we must invite Zardugal to stop any further operation in Jelbania. Other foreign forces can only generate further tension and further damage for Jelbania. We invite Zardugal also to avoid to arrest Jelbanian citizens in the Jelbanian territory. They are Jelbanian citizens! Since when these people are under the jurisdiction of the Zardic Justice? Why Zardic forces are arresting Jelbanian citizens in Jelbanian territory?

We demand the immediate releasing of these people which if reteined in Zardugal will be considered as people kidnaped by foreign forces without any juridic justification. A reinforcement of the borders could be a measure to assure the national defence, but this cannot justify the occupation of a foreign nation or part of it, even in this situation!Jelbania could not have a central government now, but these people are always Jelbanian citizens! To easy to indicate these people as terrorists! Why terrorists? Because they don't accept the Deltarian invasion? They don't accept the establishment of the Katonid Khanate? I think that these are comprensible sentiment in this moment! But, most important, these people should always be free to express their opposition and should be not persecute for their ideology!

We warn also Zardugal now: do not preceed further, if not, any words about peace and cooperation expressed until now would be empty words!

Do you want a Jelbania securized? Let the international authorities to deal with it!

Alexej Kocur, The Deltarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and leader of the Deltarian Delegation

Mr Marini,

While we cannot and will not comment on what Zardugal does, it is worth mentioning that they did so as a response to anti-Deltarian atrocities? Somehow we're being accused of invading. We have said this before, it was Katona who invaded not us. They are hunting the Deltarian minorities down simply because they are Deltarian. If that isn't terrorism I don't know what is. Are you seriously legitimizing violence against Deltarians in Jelbania? If expressing their opinion involves killing minorities, no sane nation in this summit or in Terra should say its part of free expression. These International authorities have not yet arrived and in the meantime, it seems Vanuku wants to continue its war of conquest despite sitting here with flattery while waging war at the same time. Deltaria will not tolerate this, Majatra should not tolerate this and Terra should not tolerate this!

Despite the Deltarian delegate's shoddy attempts to justify the atrocities in the western tribal areas, It seems The Zardic government will not reply themselves - and that is typical of their recent evasiveness on this matter. We ask that the Istalians follow through with their threat and censure Zardugal on behalf of this Alliance.

We also observe that the position in the Free Republic of Jelbania is becoming more chaotic and deadly. We ask as guarantor that Istalia moves in security forces to take control of the situation. If they are not prepared to we will for the sake of the humanitarian crisis developing there.

Furthermore, it seems once again we are being provoked. Four of our troops have been shot dead- by Katonid-Deltarian forces, an act that we believe was deliberately carried out to try and draw us into further conflict. The deaths of the four brave soldiers has sent shockwaves through our nation and the many people are calling for revenge.

For now, Vanuku has taken steps to further defend its position and protect Jelbanian interests from the foul totalitarians of the south. Our carrier fleets have been deployed to defend both Vanuku and Jelbania from hostile forces and to help deal with piracy and refugees. We have also sent some of our most elite troops to Jelbania to join the Expeditionary Force there to further provide security to the beleaguered indigenous people of the Steppe.

Why am I telling you this? Because I want delegates here, and their respective governments, to have no doubt that Vanuku is drawing a line in the sand. Any further provocation or attacks on our forces and those calling for revenge will most likely get their way.

Alexej Kocur, The Deltarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and leader of the Deltarian Delegation

The incident in question was started when Vanukean troops fired upon our troops and not the other way around. Vanukean Officials have admitted that their people are fairly jingoistic and have motive to go to war. What this means is that if some politician is swayed by public opinion, war is on the horizon. Four Totalitarians? Give me a break, Vanuku has a history of backing brutal regimes such as the one in Hulstria. They are hardly one to lecture on totalitarian regimes. Vanuku is only interested in building an Empire to dominate Majatra and the World. If peace is still on the horizon which I hope to god it still is, maybe this will work out just fine. Perhaps attention should be turned to this new Jeztri warlord, the family line of the "destroyer of cities" and the consequences that him succeeding would have. But of course we know that Vanuku sees them as brethren and has shown itself to be Jeztri apologists in the past. Vanuku does not care about human rights but that of its "Empire" which it wants to keep and expand.

Honourable delegates look to the news from the Free Republic of Jelbania! Surely the Deltarians are the authors of hypocrisy!

They talk of other nations and their jingoist ways, of their motives to go to war and of empire building, then, they themselves, invade and annex parts of a defenceless nation such as the FRJ.

Delegate Marini - enough is enough! The Deltarians have wantonly violated your guarantee of Independence for the FRJ. They are playing you for a fool.

We insist that you immediately carry out your threats and cast out Deltaria not only from the Majatran Alliance but go to the World Congress and lobby for them to be suspended and sanctioned. We also insist, yes insist, that you send Istalian troops to retake control of the FRJ and force Deltaria out of that territory.

Delegate Marini, if Istalia does not - Vanuku will. We will move into the the FRJ and we will carry out whatever action, military or otherwise, is required to bring peace and order to the whole of Jelbania and remove the totalitarian rot that is spreading from the south.

Our fleets are prepared, our airforce is prepared, our army is more than ready and our government has authorised the use of any and all means within our capability to win this fight. So, we need an answer - or we will act.

Honorable delegates,Istalia was clear: any attempt to infringe the borders of the Free Republic of Jelbania will unleash our condamnation, will unleash our demand before the Alliance to suspend the attacking nation, will unleash our demand of condemnation and suspension before the World Congress and will unleash the end of any relations with Istalia.

We tried in any way to find a compromise, but Deltaria showed to proceed alone and, after our warning, Deltaria seems decided to deliberately ignore us. Well... we will ask immediatly a suspension for Deltaria before the Majatran Alliance authorities and we will demand a suspension also from the World Congress.No body asked to Deltaria to occupy the Free Republic "until the arrive of the World Congress Force". NOBODY! Indeed we demanded that nobody must attack or enter into FRJ.
